I disagree with some of the views (from Carrie) about the audit. A corporate
auditor has very specific requirements as to independence and heavy
responsibility in conducting such an audit. The major audit firms such as BDO
have substantial professional indemnity insurance, because of that very heavy
responsibility. To suggest they are not doing an independent job is with
respect, wrong, because the role is not understood properly. The audits talked
about by others like Paul are on different issues, but still overlooks the
purpose of the role of BDO.
